Angela- I hope you had fun on your vacation!
Today's workout- DC Fitt- Full body strength & cardio 2-1-none format. I really like this format from Deanna. She messed up one of the circuits and did an extra round, so I had to switch up one of the exercises so I wasn't uneven. I like DC Fitt's workouts as she talks through the workouts and gives form pointers, and there's no music. After doing the Tracy Steen workout yesterday, I'm realizing that a ton of the YT instructors use the same cheesy music I get really tired of hearing!

Good job listening to your body! I felt I came back stronger after a few days off while on vacation. Tonight I did Fit By Rick 18 Minute Speed Walk and Iron Series Day 16 Hamstrings, Hip Extension, and Flexion. I'm really amazed at how less of a dread factor there is and how I've improved on so many exercises I previously loathed!

I didn't know what workout to do today, and saw this on my YT list- Fitness w/PJ- 5000ish steps low impact workout. So much better than Leslie Sansone. She actually moves you in all different directions so your hips get a decent workout. More difficult, too. I worked up a decent sweat.
It's already the end of June and I have no idea what I want to do for workouts in July. Stick with lighter weight workouts? Do more pilates (LOL, I RARELY do pilates!)? Bodyweight exercises? Ugh. I have some thinking to do!

I just subscribed to PJ's channel. I like her introduction video! Just keep moving Wendy!
I did CDornder Fitness 30 Minute Cardio Kickboxing Tabata Workout. It was really fun and the music was nice and loud. In on tabata section she used light weights but I did not since I followed it up with Iron Day 17: Complete Upper Body Workout. I did skull crushers with 12's as my staple instead of tricep dips. I cannot do tricep dips without hurting my shoulders so, no can do. I tried 20's for the arnold presses but I had to drop to 15's after trying one rep. I can use a 20 when it is one side at a time with one leg kneeling but not for both sides standing. One thing I know, I am stronger, including my lower back. I did not have issues with my lower legs during the cardio and I believe that is due to all the lunges and bulgarian lunges in the Iron Series!

Angela- I'll always keep moving, even if I don't have a plan. I exercise more for my mental health than anything. It helps keep me sane and I sleep much better.
Today's workout- DC Fitt- Low Impact Upper Body Strength & Cardio- No Repeat. I've done enough of Deanna's workouts to know to go heavier than she does. She grabs 15's, I grab my 20's, etc. I'm still lifting a decent poundage for weight work, but still not as much as if I was doing a Lift w/Cee or CG workout.
